The Talos Principle Build 424910 is Live With Tobii Eye Tracking and DX12 Support!

[IIIIDANNYIIII]

Hey everyone!

It's a happy day today, as The Talos Principle is getting the long-awaited engine upgrade we've been talking about ever since we launched Serious Sam Fusion. This update is very similar to the one we pushed to open beta a few weeks ago, but also fixes most of the things that were reported during open beta.

The highlights of the update are Tobii Eye Tracking and DX12 support, as well as further Vulkan tweaks.

Tobii Eye Tracking

We have worked closely with our friends from Tobii to implement exciting eye tracking features like Jam at Gaze, Connect at Gaze and Pick up at Gaze. Those features allow you to be more efficient in your problem-solving adventures, while the Extended View feature and Clean UI improve your immersion in Talos' world of puzzles and philosophy.

To celebrate this launch Tobii is about to have a cool contest, so be sure to jump on their Twitter page, give them a follow and await further instructions.

If you are having issues please report by starting a new thread in the tech support forum and we'll be on it straight away.

As always, if you are not satisfied with this build there's an option to go back to the older one. To do so, please follow the steps below:

— right click on The Talos Principle in your Steam library
— go to properties > betas
— opt-in by picking the "previousversion" branch in the drop-down menu

I'm having trouble playing with the Tobii tracker. At a random moment the game stops responding and shuts down, after which a window pops up saying "whether to run the game in safety mode". After clicking "No" and restarting the game, the "Tobii eye tracker" feature is disabled in the options. Attempts to restart the Tobii program and turn the tracker off and on again do nothing - the game does not detect the tracker. You have to restart the whole computer for the options from the tracker to become available again.
I have no idea what it's about. Without the tracker, the game works fine, but when I start using the tracker, the game goes crazy after a while and nothing can be done about it, and I really want to be able to play the game with this tracker because it's great fun.

System: Win10x64
GPU: RTX 3060
CPU: i7 7700
RAM: 16GB

In the logs I only found this information:
"Code guard was activated due to application malfunction. Please report".

Is the Tobii eye tracker connected through an USB-port?
Is hibernate / sleep in windows active?

To disable hibernate, run this command in a cmd window with administrative rights (elevated rights): powercfg -h off, and reboot.

Further, I have the following settings:
Control Panel --> Power options --> Change advanced power settings:
Sleep:
Sleep after: Never
Allow wake timers: Disable
USB settings:
USB selective suspend setting: Disabled
PCI Express:
Link State Power Management: Off

I hope this helps.

In the power options only selective power off of USB ports was enabled. The rest of the options were set to max performance. I have followed all the instructions and will let you know if the error occurs again. Thanks for the reply and advice.

I have set everything as you described, but the problem persists. The game just crashes at random times. Without using the tracker the game works normally, only with the tracker such problems. I noticed that the game often crashes when using "Extended View" - but it is not always much more stable on "Interact at Gaze" and "Clean UI".

If you want, I can give you a link to my archival stream and you'll see how it looked like.

I don't have a Tobii eye tracker, so I can't help you. Ask devs of Croteam, they have built TTP. Sorry I can't help you.

That's why I wrote here - maybe one of the creators will look here and comment on this topic. I also sent some crash reports when the error occurred - I just have to wait.

This game just doesn't like this tracker or its code security causes some crashes - I'm not a programmer, just guessing.
